you know watching aussies good to hear what is flying in the face of international condemnation north korea launched a long range rocket on wednesday pyongyang says. a rocket successfully delivered a weather satellite into orbit however those claims that one greeted with skepticism by the south korea and japan who suspected it was a test of a long range missile technology north korea has been from importing or exposing new plan missile technology on the u.s. security council sanctions will come pain won't concise talks on the only solution to the ongoing in pots. these are causing us to have more talks not less talks and the north koreans have been willing to attend talks other nations has certainly

russia has another nations that have been involved in the six party talks and our threats are just japan south korea the united states are less. willing to engage in talks or in these things happening but what the u.n. said was not only don't use ballistic missile technology it said we must have a commitment to a peaceful diplomatic and political solution to the situation there and that's what is really crying out and i think russia and other countries must finally say now wait a while he's there for the problem but i'm afraid that the united states is going to step back talk less isolate more of a military base that the united states will bring merrily south korea's building on july went in an effort to create a ring around china perhaps and to deal with north korea are all setbacks to peace what's necessary i think at this point in time is not is to step back from the

process and the outside countries the other countries around the world must say wait a minute a peaceful china south korea north korea japan as a region will have a huge impact on world east and i think that it's really incumbent that we put pressures towards peace and not toward amping up the conflict anymore. to sell today's news in brief now the taliban has claimed responsibility for an attack on a pakistani airport in the northwestern city of bashar while the violence has claimed at least four civilian lives and left thirty people injured that was launched by five militants armed with rockets under-served side west all of them were also killed the city of the shower is located on the edge of pakistan's volatile tribal tribal region and is often targeted by insurgents. the names of the sandy hook elementary school shooting victims have been released by authorities in connecticut the gunman identified as twenty year old adam lanza

of. women sue remember her future husband a young physicist she immediately knew he'd come a long way indeed she went on to become one of the runs leading nuclear scientists do it all ended one sunny morning do you read two thousand. and. eleven. the war and then i heard a terrible explosion i rushed to see what happened he was lying like this. i called must must must. must i thought he was just scared then i turned to him there was no face just blood in tissues he was the first victim in a gruesome trend associated with his work since two thousand and ten at least three other nuclear scientists have been murdered in iran doesn't want care gosh they were working hard so their country didn't need to beg other nations for know how

that we have the right acquires this knowledge and feel independent very nice women soon as husband began embarking on his nuclear career it was not a life threatening occupation in the seventy's western countries were regard to how piron develop its own nuclear program supplying it with technology with no strings attached that changed when the iranian regime deed was earlier seen as inalienable right became its biggest liability embolden in its pursuit of nuclear weapons billions of dollars have been pumped into the industry before the revolution at the time of the shah why should they give up now just because western powers say sun while iran's nuclear program is now a target of western political discourse there is only suspicion and no internationally recognized evidence that the countries moving towards build an atomic weapon iranian officials believe all this tension is fabricated with the same purpose to demonize them in the eyes of international community if you have

knife in your kitchen and some of the rest in concert conti your home and said knife is very dangerous. maybe you want to use it to from some. this is very. george king. the perceived fear is that the iranian regime can't be trusted with a nuclear capacity but even those who wanted to to change of leadership seat should be non-negotiable with a country. in the current issue was harmed by iranian nationals. or maybe even years. it has. kind of drago if you are. even you. want action from the south. which is preventing. the blocks that killed them and serious has been was seduced shown that the clock

in the living room stopped at the time of his death both the west and iran are equally failing to move forward and while the west is only dangerous intentions people here in iran believe it's all down to pride and prejudice. nationality from teheran brock obama's re-election gave some analysts reason to believe there might be a window of opportunity for a new diplomatic push to end iran's standoff with the west and we'll find out more on this in our interview with former iranian diplomat said hossein by up next here on our city. the legacy no one should be proud keeps of scrap metal littering pristine arctic landscape building stilton over their foundation pipes spewing black smoke over the snow covered peaks the traces of the soviet industrial activity on the burgen

archipelago don't make a pretty picture the guiding principle here is the worse the better locals like to tell the story that back in soviet times when norwegians were visiting barons were they also want to express. how prosperous the settlement was well times have obviously a challenge where they saw it lags they still attracting a region tourists are barons work i would then cons watch native cash that's why when bad our goal is common as was uncovered here a few days ago instead of throwing it away the local administration decided to paint the bin you and put it at variance work central square that can do nine hundred eighty s. daryn's work was a burgeoning mining community the soviet union was determined to maintain its own costs to clear located halfway between north america and western europe bergen archipelago is part of norway but a special status that allows other countries to set up industrial bases here in the

middle of the cold war it served as the use of western most outposts now it's one of the soviet union's last preserved relics. it is essentially a picture of the soviet union if it was cut off from any financial support for two decades curious for western tourists and i think it could be even more appealing for russians travelers to keep its presence on spitsbergen russia still maintaining a coal mine here but in terms of profit is far behind local souvenir shops so between. i believe it is a big hit the defunct are incurred still helps keep the money flowing. it's the russians who in your words you can simply. make your own also. your local administration is increasingly under pressure to bring the infrastructure up to more than standards if these modernization efforts not very popular with

tourists if you come into a very authentic place like bond it should stay the way it is that would be my wish i mean that's the part of the little you know authentic traditional. i should not i would not like to have it in a shiny condition to be honest this time to change even for the better is not always good for business something that even the local band has become attuned to when they try to add morning russian songs to die repertoire the audience called all they wanted to hear it was a song comfortably familiar. we're

now joined by iran's former top diplomat and now a scholar in the field of international relations mr sort of thank you very much for meeting with us thank you let's start with the united states it's now clear that barack obama's staying for a second term in office specked still to attract as much attention or will mr obama focus on more pressing issues like dealing with the u.s. economy for example iran has been top foreign policy issue for all astray sions since nine hundred seventy nine. if not topic number one definitely iran has been always between top three foreign policy issues of the united states that's why i believe even in the second term of president obama iran would be if not the most important between top three important issues while

now definitely president obama is constrained before the elections do you think that could mean that he is more likely to get involved in something like a war with iran i believe obama came to office with. engagement policy and he himself was sincere. and he had the good intentions which failed to dilute the patient if you don't do to pressure from congress a pac. israeli prime minister. very tough policies of europeans because during president bush europeans they had engaged in policy but on fortunately during engagement policy of president obama europeans they had hawkish policies i agree with you president obama should have less

constraint in the second term and therefore we can be illegal but more optimistic not too much we should not be too much to mr because the pressures would you make the mystically from israel but he would have a little bit freer hand. for going forward with iraq hopefully he would be successful and where you mention israel because he's really prime minister has been saying that the us will assist israel if it strikes iran what does this mean now after the election i believe americans they do not want to be engaged in feared war in the middle east americans they have good lessons from invading iraq and afghanistan they have lost trillions of dollars. thousands of lives and they're leaving of coniston and iraq with in a mess and they have no what you want. and all of the stability has been much

more wars in afghanistan and iraq after american regime be understand the concept points is what i can get along with mccain for it's compared to iraq and of coniston iran is to compare to iraq and afghanistan because iran is completely different that's why i believe there is a consensus within republicans and democrats that they should not drag the us to defeat or benjamin netanyahu is own political futures currently uncertain since this party is preparing to take part in the upcoming elections in israel how do you tell what's pre-election rhetoric and what are real intentions i believe even from the beginning the turn yahoo was bluffing.

i believe in faires put pressure an american president to made a credible threat not only strong. what to do what to do you mean by a credible threat they wanted the american president to put a red line not on nuclear bomb. which is the legitimate right of every member when they could not push obama to this point but he decided himself to make a credible threat in order to push the u.s. the e.u. in a position to choose between crippling sanctions or war which he was confident europe and the united states would sanctions but the main target of a lot of netanyahu from the beginning was crippling sanctions not war i believe he

dismissed the u.s. and europe and he was successful israel's plausible nuclear stockpile or threat to iran. i really believe neither israel is existing threat for iran nor iran is existential threat to israel we had just global disease summit conference here and i told the conference that even today israel is the are always using the wrong issue justifying the nuclear bomb saying iran is existential threat for israel but the fact is israel is that israel produced nuclear bomb before islamic revolution where the shah of iran was that a lawyer of israel. israeli nuclear bomb has nothing to do with iraq because it

was massed produced before of revolution now they are using islamic revolution in order to justify which i would not why this argument iran has really been stigmatized in the public domain for the past few years what can their own do to persuade the west that it's not building a nuclear weapon i believe. iran has been ready for cooperation with the i.a.e.a. to remove the ambiguity. during all time you'll remember in two thousand and three to talk to two thousand and five we implemented additional protocol we implemented a subsidy arrangement called three point one we have been suspended in richmond to give access for the beyond additional protocol we opened the military side.

but the e.u. three was not able to recognize the legitimate rights of iran because the u.s. position was zero enrichment that's why didn't bush asians during our time failed despite the fact that we were ready for full transparency and we proved practically . during president i mean in a jar russia in two thousand and eleven proposed step by yes the plan the russian step by step plan consisted of all majors requirements of the. tonic and as you agency and united nations security council resolutions. and even beyond but the iranian officials they will come the russian initiative as a basis for negotiations it was the us and the you which declined the russian proposal therefore i believe again even today the russian proposal

can be a good basis for negotiations who personally worked with. monitors in iran for several years and while the international observers are known to have accused iran of not letting them see everything they want while the iran has been saying that it can't satisfy all the who's right it depends iran is a member of safeguard they are asking iran to implement additional protocol implementing additional protocol is not mandated for the nations for the cultures today seventy countries they do not implemented the shah protocol therefore this would be a guess shows a good read from iran to implement additional protocol. now i. is even requiring requesting iran to give access to the i is

beyond additional protocol no nation in this war has given access to die beyond that shop i believe iran is ready if they recognize the rights of iran for in richmond like any other member. of n.p.t. and if they are prepared all to make clear to lift the sanctions to start lifting the sanctions gradually at the end the state to lift all sanctions if the west and the p five plus one are ready and this two issue i believe iran will show good will to accept additional protocol to cooperate with by the possibility they mention issues which would need to give access to die beyond additional protocol the e.u. hasn't been buying iranian oil for months now has iran been able to find new markets i believe iranian oil export

has decreased fifty percent sixty percent but believe me even if you are in they cannot export one drop of oil they would not give up their rights under the n.p.t. . it really doesn't matter how much you want them exported or not during the war eight years invasion of iraq nine hundred eighty two nine hundred eighty eight we had much more war situation let's move on to syria no how do you think the craft in syria may affect the situation around iran. i believe this would affect more the region the us allies. i believe if they continue like peace syria would go to seed war and civilian war. spreading to iraq so the

jordan lebanon and even tortured. iran would be the list to be affected by this spread of civilian war or war from syria. of course iran may lose one friend one partner ashore a set but it doesn't mean. they're radical muslims they are caught they would come to paul where they would be friend of israel or american muslim brother who if they are in power they would be much more ideologists. the base would be islamic ideology aside this situation that's the difference what is the biggest threat for the united states in egypt i believe the biggest threat threat for the us is coming out of arab spring where and where salafi.

taleban is i'm a lawyer their extreme some need is radicals or. capturing the muslim countries the collapse of the us allies like mubarak minnelli one after one this is the real threat to the us how do you see the situation developing with the arab spring is going to spread to other countries nobody knows but but but as far as i can see. there islamicists are coming to power through whole middle east and this would affect it . there are remaining us allies in the reach my son was sobbing thank you very much for your time on this was iran's former top diplomat and now scholar in the fuel international relations mr hossein mousavian.
